Downtown San Jose bars get into the Halloween spirit

Don't be surprised if you run into Halloween movie killer Michael Myers at O'Flaherty's Pub in downtown San Jose. The masked slasher is all over the San Pedro Square bar just one of several watering holes downtown with themes of spooky movies and TV shows to get patrons into the Halloween spirit (or spirits, I guess). Besides O'Flaherty's, other San Pedro Square bars owned by the Nuvo Hospitality group have gotten into the fun.

Harriette Cole: The bouncer rejected me, and my friends went in anyway

The clubs are strict they have security guards, and apparently everyone expects you to wear high heels and tiny dresses, neither of which are really my style. On two occasions, my friends and their tiny dresses were approved by the bouncer, but my mom jeans and I were not. I was embarrassed, but the fact that my friends decided not to go in made me feel a lot better.

One more shot: can nightlife be saved by letting clubbers bring their own booze?

The Night Time Industries Association (NTIA) recently reported that the UK has lost three venues a week in the past three months, seven in 10 venues are failing to make a profit and a quarter of towns and cities that had nightclubs in 2020 now have none.
